     Good morning and Happy Mothers' Day my pretty Peacock's!  Pinquette Mary here hoping you are all enjoying your special day whether you are a Mother yourself, spending time with your Mom or having fond memories of your Mom in Heaven, either way I hope you have something special planned. Speaking of special, oh my goodness what great projects on this hop. If you just came from Kimberly then you are in the right place! Today I wanted to share with you an with a easy way to preserve those beautiful invitations you receive without ruining them and of course dress it up with beautiful Pinque Peacock supplies.


     I knew as soon as Jessica showed us the new products for the hop that Nana's Pillowcase would be my favorite and it is. The colors matched my grand daughters invitation perfectly and includes all the colors. Since chalkboard art is so popular now, my daughter used this invitation to the First Communion. Bold and yet soft enough for the occasion.
     In order to preserve all the info that was also included on the back of the card I decided to add a band of card stock, dress it up and tack it down on either side with flower brads. This way I could always remove it without damaging the card.

     I just love how soft this flower is and I couldn't believe how perfectly it goes with the card stock I had on hand. I also had some "spare" leaves hanging around and added some lace and this epoxy frame to really draw attention to the fabric Splendid Swirls flower. You can purchase them HERE
     Lastly, I needed something to balance off the lower right hand corner so I used a piece of lace for consistancy and I had an embellishment in the Mind's Eye stack I had but it needed something. Of course sparkle...bling... rhinestones... and...Stickles!!

     
     So there you have it a simple yet elegant way to save this wonderful card. It will be fun to look at this in later years. Be sure to hop on over to the ever talented Rebecca and be prepared to be inspired!
